NHTSA Complaint #11716838 — 2024 HYUNDAI IONIQ 5

Multiple 12v batteries, the battery management system, and ICCU have all failed on my Ioniq 5. During my 13-month lease, this vehicle has been inoperable for more than 30 cumulative days due to the same recurring defect. The vehicle was taken to an authorized Hyundai dealership multiple times, but the defect was repeatedly misdiagnosed and not corrected, resulting in continued failures and extended loss of use. The defect causes sudden loss of power and complete vehicle shutdown, including the inability to restart the vehicle. If this occurs while driving, it creates a serious safety hazard by eliminating propulsion, power-assisted steering, and braking assistance. The vehicle may become disabled in traffic or at intersections, increasing the risk of a collision, injury, or stranding occupants in unsafe conditions.
